It uses a GPU accelerated DirectWrite/DirectX-based text rendering engine and it's Windows only. I think it's hard to support MacOS.

There are no plans currently.

We're dependent upon C++/WinRT and XAML Islands (UWP XAML) for our UI. We're also using DX/DWrite for the text renderer. Unless those are ported to MacOS sometime, then I'd say there's very little chance we ever support MacOS.
